Actually, in Payton's first year, he cost the Saints a key game with a moronic call. The difference is that he appeared to learn his lesson. Against the Falcons, driving in the fourth quarter, and on 3rd and inches tried a crazy trick play that the Bucs totally blew up, got the ball and won.

You know, I vaguely remember this, thanks for reminding me. I'll try to youtube it up.

I said Falcon's, but I am pretty sure it was Tampa Bay
